    Rifle Scopes Slipping TPS rings

    Re: Slipping TPS rings Yep thats how mine look too. I swear I did everything right, and I was just shocked to see my scope had slipped so far. Im gonna get some plasti-gage and put it in there and see if I am getting a big gap anywhere.

    Gunsmithing remington trigger safety

    Re: remington trigger safety the x-mark parts wont work on those aftermarket triggers. I think Rifle Basix makes the parts you need. You will probably need a bolt release too.

    Rifle Scopes Slipping TPS rings
